tanári

Tanári is an Hungarian adjective derived from the noun tanár, meaning teacher. It denotes relation to teachers or to teaching and is used to describe things that pertain to the teaching profession. As a modifier, tanári translates to "teacher’s" or "teaching" in English and is employed in a wide range of contexts, from education policy to everyday school life.

Common usages include phrases such as tanári munka (teaching work), tanári pálya (teaching profession), tanári diploma (teacher’s certificate), tanári etika (teacher ethics), and tanári kompetenciák (teaching competences). The form is versatile and can describe materials, methods, or policies, for example tanári továbbképzés (professional development for teachers) or tanári kar (faculty of education or teachers’ corps), depending on the context.

Linguistic notes: tanári is gender-neutral and refers to attributes or activities related to teachers rather than to any individual teacher. It contrasts with tanár, which denotes a person who teaches. The term can appear in formal, administrative, or educational discourse, as well as in instructional materials and official communications within schools and higher education institutions.
